If you look at the harness where it goes to the fire wall, you'll see it breaks down into 3 sections, one for the taillights, one for the front light and the third for the engine. Just leave them all in place, the only 24v on the truck is the starter/relay and slave receptacle and the voltmeter...
Answer for both is yes, order #2 and #25 from Hillbilly but before hooking them up get a spray can of auto transmission cooler flush and flush the oil cooler in the Rad and Hillbilly's lines. The last thing you want on a new engine is finding old contaminates in the cooler!
All the alternator...
If you look closely you can see the bolts on the back of the mounting bar have nuts counter sunk in the plastic portion of the mount. I'd say yes, you can change it out but why? I'd just use the old bar itself in the new mount, it's not correct but if it works then who are we to judge? The PO...

I'd use paint stripper, apply to one panel and then cover with plastic. While thats sitting place scrap sheets of cardboard under it to catch drips and spray/brush a second panel and cover then go back to the first and scrap the gunk off using a plastic body filler spreader. Keep one panel...
I'm thinking along the lines of valve cover gasket or maybe even a small fuel leak from the filter and picking up dirt and undercoating on the way down.
